It's one of Sheffield's most desirable suburbs, with its good schools, pretty park, thriving market and excellent transport links.
But, like everywhere in Sheffield, Chapeltown has changed considerably over the years.
This retro photo gallery shows the neighbourhood as it looked during the 1960s and 70s, including the area's popular pubs, the old swimming baths and some of the shops which have been lost.
An old smallpox isolation hospital which was still in use back then, a large block of flats which has since been demolished and staff at the Izal factory which made a range of disinfectant products are among the other nostalgic images.

Nora Bailey retiring after 31 years service with Izal Ltd, in Chapeltown, Sheffield. She was presented with a Georgian tea service, ear-rings, a cameo brooch and two sprays of flowers. Izal had a factory on Station Road, Chapeltown, and made a number of products using a germicidal oil which was a by-product of coke-making from coal for the blast furnaces at Thorncliffe Ironworks. Those products included the famous Izal toilet paper. Photo: Picture Sheffield | Picture Sheffield
